Not Guilty verdict at Crown Court - Identification evidence successful

I wish to express my heartfelt gratitude to Andy Rootsey after the Not Guilty verdicts were entered against me today at my Trial. I faced a charge of GBH and maintained from the beginning that I was not responsible. Although I was picked out on an ID parade, Andy challenged the fairness of the parade and legal submissions were put before the Trial Judge. Today we finally vindicated and I was formally acquitted as a result of the hard work and perseverance of Andy and the team.

Not guilty verdicts in case at the crown court

I am delighted with the service provided by Andy Rootsey. After legal submissions at the Crown Court yesterday, Not Guilty verdicts were recorded against me in respect of the Fraud offences that I faced. Andy was outstanding throughout, he immediately grasped the issues and outlined the whole process from the start with his no nonsense approach . The advice and guidance provided was of the very highest standard and I could not be happier with the result, thank you so much Andy.

Successful application for wasted costs order against the CPS

I recently received a substantial sum from the Prosecution, reimbursing me for the legal fees I paid to defend myself in this case. Thanks to Andy Rootsey’s efforts, my case was rightfully dropped before the Trial. Following this Andy applied to the Court for my costs to be paid by the CPS for a wasted costs order, given the unfair way in which they continued with the case against me. This was successful, with the Court granting the application. If you are seeking fairness and justice, I would highly recommend Andy and Murray Hughman solicitors.

Hats off to Andy for excellent Crown Court result....

Andy Rootsey has worked on our family's behalf previously and we've always been really impressed by his professional but human & empathetic approach, and not least of all by his ultra-responsiveness and ability to make matters clear to the layman.

On this occasion he excelled himself with not only the above qualities but by an inspired choice of barrister (Ella Eleanor Lucas) to handle the case and an ultra-clear briefing which led to 2 out of 3 charges being dropped and sentence for the third charge (guilty plea) reduced to the very minimum possible.
Everyone was absolutely delighted and relieved by the result and the way that Andy and team handled the case. We can't thank you enough Andy.

Grant Ambridge and Amy Bromwich at Murray Hughman are a top quality team - awake, professional, efficient and, indeed, humane. They helped me more than the words here adequately express - the outcome 100% successful. I remain most sincerely grateful. If you find yourself in an unpleasant situation and are unsure to whom you should turn, I am confident that these two will help you. Turn to them, you'll be relieved you did.
